I don't know where this happened, but when I opened my eyes the room was dark with many chains scattered in every corner of the room.
The disgusting smell of lumps of flesh and pools of blood made the atmosphere around me tense.
I want to speak but I can't, when I look at myself, I see many chains tied into my body. It's painful but I don't know when it happened.
The feeling of familiarity with the current atmosphere gave me goosebumps, I wanted to move my body when I realised that a slave collar was tied around my neck.
I remember this, why do I have to experience this again?
No! Shouldn't I have been free from all this suffering 4 years ago?
As crazy thoughts began to fill my head, I heard the sound of a door opening, far ahead of the door I saw the silhouette of a beautiful girl with purple hair walking in gracefully.
However, when I tried to look into her eyes, her face became blurry and hard to see.
While in her hand was a sword that seemed to emit electric sparks wrapped in a pool of blood.
"Hmm? Honey, are you awake?" a melodious and graceful voice sounded from her.
"..."
"Hm~ I see, so you're still happy today," she smiled happily as she crouched down and caressed my face.
As I moved my head to really look into her eyes, I felt a small and soft hand gripping my head.
"Fufu~ Honey, it's too early to really look at my face~ anyway if you look at me now, it will only ruin our future meetings," she smiled even though I couldn't see her face clearly.
But when I tried to release her grip on my head, she spoke.
"Honey, this might be quite painful, but I have to do this to you for a while" When she said that, she put her hand on my chest.
As I tried to figure out what was happening, my vision started to blur and I passed out.
•••••
At that time, the sun with its warm light was just coming out from the edge of the eastern side of the earth as people slowly began to wake up from their sleep.
Inside a house that looked ruined and could collapse at any moment, there was a beautiful girl standing in the kitchen with an apron on.
"hm! In order to provide nutritious food for Yuki, I must cook healthy food!!!" The girl, Utaha said with confidence as she started cutting vegetables and trying to make soup.
"Firstly the carrot pieces should not be too big then..." Utaha read the recipe book in her hand excitedly as she cut the carrots carefully.
"Then after this heat the water and then put in the seasoning first to make a nutritious broth, also I have to make sure the flame is not too high when putting the vegetables into the soup"
Slowly, as Utaha began to follow the steps in the recipe book one by one, an hour passed by as Utaha stood in front of the soup pot with a satisfied look on his face.
"It's nice and warm when you eat it" Utaha spoke softly as she began to pour the soup into bowls.
Meanwhile, while Utaha was busy cooking to make soup for yuki, inside the guest room where yuki was sleeping, there was yuki who had woken up with sweat pouring down his face.
"Ha~ ha~ why do I have to dream about that again" Yuki said weakly as he covered his face in frustration.
When she looked at the clock on the wall of the room, Yuki saw that it was still around 07: 11.
While he tried to get off the bed and started walking to the bathroom to wash his face, Yuki glanced at a strangely shaped seal with a purple stripe on its chest that slightly extended to its neck.
At first glance if anyone else saw that seal, they would think that Yuki had a cool tattoo with a rather unusual colour.
Returning to wash his face, yuki wiped his face with a towel before he left the bathroom to walk to the kitchen.
But just when yuki was about to enter, he smelled soup.
"This?" Yuki made a confused expression.
Opening the kitchen door slightly, Yuki saw that there was Utaha who was tasting the soup on the stove.
"eh?...Utaha Senpai? She can cook?" Yuki was a little surprised by the reality in front of her eyes, after all, Yuki had never seen Utaha cooking in the original anime or had he forgotten about it?
I don't know after all it was a very long time ago, plus the photographic memory skill did not help his to remember the past.
He watched Utaha for a while before he entered and walked slowly behind Utaha.
"Senpai?" yuki called out to Utaha who was preparing soup.
"Eh?!" Looking back Utaha saw the figure of a boy who was quite familiar to him, his black hair and black eyes made Utaha remember the dark sky at night.
"Are you cooking?" yuki looked at the soup on the table while giving a small nod.
"Eh... that... I apologise for using your kitchen without your permission," Utaha made an expression as if he was sorry.
"It's okay, after all I didn't know that you could cook senpai"
"Eh?! That... not really, I was just following this recipe book," Utaha made an embarrassed expression.
"Oh, I know, I thought you were quite good at cooking, after all your soup is very good"
"A-that's you praising me too much Kato-kun" Utaha made an embarrassed expression before she picked up and offered the soup in a bowl to Yuki.
"For me?"
"Yes! I did cook this for you, also thanks to you for saving me earlier" Utaha lowered his head and bowed to Yuki.
"It doesn't matter, after all what I did earlier was just a form of self-defence because of the demon that attacked me earlier too," Yuki said as if she didn't care and sat at the dining table.
"Also... let's eat, after all if this soup is left too long it will get cold" Yuki smiled, sat down and brought utaha to sit at the dining table together.
"Eh? Is that alright? After all, I cooked this specially for you" Utaha looked troubled when Yuki invited him to eat together.
"It's fine, after all you've cooked quite a lot of soup and I can't finish it all"
"Then I won't hesitate, Bon appetit" Utaha smiled as she ate with yuki.
"Bon appetit."
